I'm not so worried about this point, as the mechanism is temporary, and it will take time before answers on stackoverflow reach the mass. The initial state is that the option is not discoverable without reading the documentation, and Jeff's documentation is very clear that this is temporary. People reading the doc are usually not the kind of people giving dumb answers on the web. And even if some people set the option without understanding the consequences, it's not that terrible. They'll just get the transition period shortened. -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
